It's still the full size half wave dipole at low height.
It took me about two years to realize more by accident that it receives
TA signals so well. :-)
Interestingly DJ0ABR and DH5RAE who spot TA signals too but quite rarely
are also using fullsize dipoles but at much more height.
You find a description at DH5RAE's DARC homepage.

After comparisons with the above stations
I believe now it's the quiet location AND the topography of the terrain
which is continuously sloping in NW direction.
Below the antenna there's a slight slope and then it passes into a valley.
